RULES OF ENGAGEMENT, ASSUMING YOU WANT TO READ ON

1. Today’s ‘liberated’ society believes anyone under legal age (?) is incapable of appreciating the literary works (and dangerous thoughts) of authors like André Gide. Who else would dare write, when it came to boys, ‘no scruple clouded his pleasure and no remorse followed it.’

The truth is that every gay man was once a curious gay boy. In this author’s opinion, it is far better for a boy to read and use his imagination than watch men sodomize each other on the Internet. That said, if your government restricts you from reading what you want to read, or you fail an arbitrary age limit, please leave. It’s for your own good; otherwise you’ll turn into a pervert/pedophile/rapist/sadist and threaten the very foundation of Post-Modern culture.

2. In the same vein, if you live in a backward, repressive state that doesn't allow you to read the things you want, regardless of age, pack up and leave before they catch you.

Before you leave, repeat after me, ‘Your government always knows what is best for you….’

3. This isn't porn with a plot; it's thought-provoking literature. If you want porn without plot, or if Gide’s ‘dangerous thoughts’ disturb you, check out the abundance of adult-only stories. There are even stories about authoritarian gay men on camping trips.

4. If you don’t believe kids suffer from issues of gender identity, you are sadly mistaken—today’s social media are full of them. Not interested? You can always find something else to read on Nifty. Perhaps something in the bestiality category?

5. It's copyrighted. If you don’t know what that means, go back to grade school. If you are interested in translating the story into Swahili, or obtaining the movie rights, please contact my agent.

6. If we can't agree that love is a state of mind that exists regardless of societal rules limiting age and gender, put this down until you acquire sufficient intellect to have an open mind. When 95% of adult gays believe Nifty should not allow adult-youth stories, one has to wonder whether Stonewall was worth it. BTW, that ‘95%’ is from gay chatrooms, specifically discussions of Nifty content, and underage boys in particular.

7. This is FICTION. Good fiction blends ‘fact’ with imagination to create believable situations, whether The Lord of the Rings or Treasure Island. Do NOT believe what you read here. Do NOT attempt anything discussed, whether driving while reading from your cellphone, contacting kids through social media, shooting vigilantes with a pump-action shotgun, or visiting Mexico to find a transgender surgeon.

8. Support Nifty. Give generously while you still can. It’s one of the few ways you can read what you want to read anonymously, and for FREE. If you don’t support the world’s greatest gay library, who will? The alternative, like everything else: it’s only a matter of time until Google, Facebook, or Amazon takes it over.
